S9 12rd. Mags Revisited]]>11Speed reload causes slide battery issuesMon, 06 Jun 2016 02:36:23 +0000https://www.steyrclub.com/threads/speed-reload-causes-slide-battery-issues.11821/

I can replicate the problem at home by chambering a snap cap and quickly reloading a magazine - the slide moves out of battery every time resulting in a failure to fire and lost time for score.

On the other hand, when the chamber is empty and the striker is not cocked a quick reload does not move the slide back at all no matter how hard I insert the magazine.

What is the cause...

Speed reload causes slide battery issues]]>3Ongoing, seemingly unable to fix a Fail to Eject.Sat, 19 Dec 2015 19:40:22 +0000https://www.steyrclub.com/threads/ongoing-seemingly-unable-to-fix-a-fail-to-eject.11643/

The first type of ammo used was jacketed hollow points, which when being fed into the chamber, got hung up on the barrel feed ramp and jammed. So technically, the previous spent round properly ejected, but the JHP jammed during the feed. The gun was meticulously cleaned before going to the range. Last year, SIA sent me a new extractor which has been installed.

I re-assembled my M40 incorrectly]]>3M/M-A1 Trigger Lightening TweakSun, 15 Nov 2015 21:03:59 +0000https://www.steyrclub.com/threads/m-m-a1-trigger-lightening-tweak.6062/

while waiting for a new firing pin/striker assembly from SAI for my M9-A1, i happened upon a good deal on an M40-A1 with a less than desirable trigger pull (like 8lbs or so... not nearly as good as my M9-A1), and although i am not a fan of the .40...

Please.... do any of you GB veterans have this re-assembly down to a science???

If you have any photos, sketches, diagrams, or some good guidance, I would sure appreciate the HELP!!

Thanks,

Then almost suddenly the guns started shooting wildly. I mean I couldn't shoot any kind of group with them. Just to confirm it wasn't my shooting on the same day I used my friend's SSG 69 gun with the same ammo and I was able to shoot sub-MOA groups. I've since changed the rifle and so far no problems but I'm wondering whether I will see this problem surface again...
